Each of the hotel’s 26 rooms include luxury linens and terry from Revival New York, a retro Marshall amplifying speaker, and Le Labo shower amenities. The hotel’s Private Queen Rooms feature a custom millwork desk, as do the Private King Room Suites, which also boast an extended Living Room Lounge with a built-in vinyl player and a watercolor nook to ignite your inner creative. The Shared Bunk rooms offer four well-appointed full-size beds, and are perfect for traveling friends, colleagues, or families.

“If there are two words that my team tells me I overuse, they are ‘narrative’ and ‘depth’.” So says Life House founder, Rami Zeidan, who was born into a Lebanese family in Minnesota and who understands that when it comes to the hospitality world, one can never be too authentic. “Everything we do is rooted in a deep desire to enrichen lives through exposure to new experiences, cultures, and people,” explains the longtime executive at such hotel companies and brands as Starwood, Sydell, NoMad, Freehand, and 1 Hotels. Having spent his life gaining perspective on the ins and outs of hospitality, Zeidan found that while there are many great hotels out there, there is a dearth of those at an accessible price point that tell deep stories with narrative and substance, that foster a community for guests and locals alike, and that offer meaningful experiences.
